After doing some testing, I believe wp-hive works fine with the modifications above. I had no problem adding new sites.

Please let me know if you find a problem. I’ll try to help.

I fixed this problem with wp-hive and now have it working with WP 3.1. I modified two wp-hive files.
db.php (in the wp-content folder)

if ( ! defined('ABSPATH') ) die("Hmmm...");
//require_once( ABSPATH . WPINC . '/wp-db.php' );
if ( ! defined( 'WP_PLUGIN_DIR' ) )
    define( 'WP_PLUGIN_DIR', WP_CONTENT_DIR . '/plugins' );
global $wpdb;
if ( !isset( $wpdb ) )
    $wpdb = new wpdb( DB_USER, DB_PASSWORD, DB_NAME, DB_HOST );
if ( file_exists(WP_PLUGIN_DIR . '/wp-hive/do-prefix.php'))
    require_once( WP_PLUGIN_DIR . '/wp-hive/do-prefix.php');

do-prefix.php (in the wp-hive plugin folder)

Commented out two function calls in the last few lines:

//wphive_force_plugin_active();

// Check if this is a fresh install and fix Siteurl for proper redirect
//wphive_siteurl_for_install($wphive->current_site->path, $table_prefix, $orig_hostname, $wphive->current_site->host);

I realize more changes are needed to add and initialize new sites, but at least this works with existing installations.
